Boston College Marching Band

Professional section instructors and student leaders oversee and facilitate all rehearsals and performances.

[2] The Band performs two different half-time shows a year in the drum and bugle corps style of marching.

In the 2010, 2011, and 2012 seasons, the Band traveled to Canada to perform a pre-game and halftime routine for the Montreal Alouettes.

Three hours before kickoff, the Boston College Marching Band parades through Lower Campus and leads the football team into Alumni Stadium.

After every first down, the Band plays a short, 4-bar fanfare similar to "Sweep Down the Field," another BC fight song.

Current staff of the band include: Brian Shanbrun-Woodwinds, Tim Leonelli-Low Brass, Mark Soo-High Brass, Simon Mazzoli-Percussion, Sanjay Pamaar-Percussion Assistant, Dan Salant-Front Ensemble, and Daria Healey-Dance Team.
